Chapter 800: Beach Swimming Middle Part ⑨ (2/2)

She would usually show up when I'm bored or when I've finished what I have to do.

If she wasn't going out of control, she would have a gentle personality, and considering this, it feels like our impression of her may have been slightly distorted. Well, the impact of her outbursts was just so strong that it overshadowed the rest of her qualities……

[……Speaking of which, had Alice always been close to Eden-san?]

[Eh? Why?]

[No, I'm not saying that you had a stormy relationship with her, but I had that Eden-san highly evaluates Alice, but you hated Eden-san, so it was a little surprising that you naturally spoke for her sake.]

If I remember correctly, Alice mentioned how she hated Eden-san, and I remember how slightly harsh she was towards her at my birthday party.

But now, she was trying to clear up my and Anima's misunderstanding, and even speaking up for her sake. I mean, it may just be my imagination, but I felt that Alice's face when she was talking about Eden-san earlier seemed to be unusually kind.

[Hmmm, well, in that incident in the God Realm back then…… It may be partly because I was closer to Kaito-san, but she also gave me some advice to the extent that that incident didn't become a problem. I think she's become a little more open-minded than she used to be.]

[I see…… Come to think of it, I hadn't heard much about what happened in the God Realm other the times I'm involved. After that, I immediately went to the Festival of Heroes' main festival and went back to my previous world……]

[Ah~~ Speaking of which, we've only talked about it in passing. Anima-san is also here, so let's talk about it in detail.]

[……Ah, no, I haven't really done that much, so it would be great if you'd exclude me from that……]

[Well then, let's start with Anima's cool story about how she defeated the God of Commerce!]

[Alice-dono!?]

<Afterword>

Makina : [……How strange. If I remember correctly, she had acquired those ingredients in an almost fraudulent way…… Also, because of the previous housewarming party, doesn't this feel like Shallow Vernal would misunderstand that I did this because of my love for my child? I'm pretty sure that later……]

『The ingredients themselves exist in my world, so I won't condemn you for violating the contract. However, if you are going to do something like this, I would like it if you tell me beforehand.』

Makina : [……or such roundabout complaints would definitely come.]

Serious-senpai : [Isn't it because of your daily routine (outbursts)?]

Makina : [It would definitely be that, she'd definitely tell me such a thing. Even this me is helpless against her…… Can you at least clear up Shallow Vernal's misunderstanding, Alice…… I've already got Shallow Vernal's assurance last time that ”she would take care of things outside of our contract”, so I've been thinking about lots of ways that I could shower my child with my love…… but it'll make it harder for me to say it now.]

Serious-senpai : [……(If you knew that, wouldn't it be hard for your unreasonable demands to be met while making sure Kaito wouldn't be in a troublesome situation?)]
